How Brixus Courses Work

Every Brixus course is built the same way: you learn by answering, not by rereading. Here is what that looks like, whatever you are studying.

Questions in the Reading

Every page asks you questions as you read, so you check your understanding on the spot instead of rereading and hoping it stuck.

Nine Question Types

Multiple choice, true or false, fill in the blank, matching, ordering, short answer, open text, image and quadrant questions, all with explanations.

Mistakes Come Back First

Practice sessions bring back the questions you got wrong until you get them right, so your time goes where it is needed.

Spaced-Repetition Flashcards

Each course's key terms become flashcards, scheduled to come back just before you would forget them.

Progress per Chapter

See how far you are in every page, chapter and course, so you always know what to study next.

Study on Any Device

Read and practise in the browser on your phone, tablet or computer, or in the Brixus Android app.

Learn by answering

Questions Right Where You Read

Rereading feels productive but fades fast. Answering makes you retrieve what you learned, and that is what makes it last.

Every chapter of a Brixus course mixes short explanations with questions about what you just read. Answer one and you see straight away whether you got it, with an explanation of why. Related questions are grouped around a shared scenario, numbered 1.a and 1.b, the way exam case studies are.

  • Explanations With Every Answer

    Right or wrong, you learn why, so a mistake turns into understanding instead of a guess.

  • Hints When You Are Stuck

    Nudges that point you in the right direction without giving the answer away.

  • Key Terms Highlighted

    Important terms are marked in the text, with their definition one tap away.

Practice Sessions That Bring Mistakes Back First

Practise across the chapters you choose, and spend your time on what you have not mastered yet.

Start a practice session over a whole course or a few chapters. Go through the questions in order, shuffled, or with the ones you missed first. Missed questions keep coming back until you answer them correctly, and your first-try score shows how ready you are.

  • Three Practice Modes

    In order, shuffled, or wrong-first: pick what fits the stage you are at.

  • Save Questions for Later

    Mark the tricky ones and practise just those before the big day.

  • Progress You Can See

    Completion per page, chapter and course, so you know exactly where you stand.

Flashcards on a Spaced-Repetition Schedule

The course's key terms become flashcards that come back at the moment you are about to forget them.

Grade each card Again, Hard, Good or Easy and Brixus schedules the next review for you. Cards you know well come back less often; cards you struggle with come back sooner. A few minutes a day keeps a whole course of terminology in your head.

  • Scheduled for You

    Every card follows its own review schedule, based on how well you know it.

  • Minutes a Day

    Short reviews fit into a commute or a coffee break.

Certification study guides

Every guide has free sample questions you can try without an account.

  • Mapped to the Skills Outline

    Cover what the exam measures, chapter by chapter.

  • Questions Tagged by Topic

    Practise one area at a time when you know where your gaps are.

Questions About Learning on Brixus

What kinds of questions are in a Brixus course?

Nine types: multiple choice, true or false, fill in the blank, matching pairs, ordering, short answer, open text, image questions with markers, and quadrant questions. Each comes with an explanation, and many have hints.

How do practice sessions work?

Choose the chapters you want to practise and a mode: in order, shuffled, or wrong-first. Questions you miss come back until you answer them correctly, and you see your first-try score at the end.

How do the flashcards work?

Each course's key terms become flashcards. After you grade a card Again, Hard, Good or Easy, Brixus schedules its next review, so cards you find hard come back sooner.

Can I study on my phone?

Yes. Courses work in any modern browser on phone, tablet or computer, with a reader made for small screens, and in the Brixus Android app.
